Time for Change| San Diego Photographer

So I’m tired of looking at myself in the mirror and being disappointed. I look at my closet and yearn to wear clothes that have been hung for almost 2 years. I’ve told myself over and over again that SUMMER is when that will happen…and well folks, it’s just about summer and it’s NOT happening. I kept telling myself to start After New Years, then it became after Valentines, but now it’s Dad’s birthday, then after Easter, well then it’s Mom’s birthday….see a pattern? So I come on here today to do something about it. I KNOW many of you might say that I’m fine just the way I am and I am skinny enough, but my clothes are telling me otherwise! LOL.

After having my BEAUTIFUL baby girl, I’m stuck with 15lbs that JUST WONT GO AWAY! On top of having a 9-5 job that has FREE lunch…well, how can one not indulge? I know 15 isn’t much, but gosh dangit, it’s enough to make me sad. I figure by losing the weight, exercising and getting fit, I wont feel as tired and have more energy to keep up with my kiddos.

If you’re just like me, self motivation just doesn’t cut it. So I’m coming here today to COMPLETELY and UTTERLY embarrass myself. Below is a photo of me with my current weight. I hope that with the help from my readers (and knowing I’m ON THE WEB for all to see), that I have to show something for it. So from now until I lose my 15lbs, I will check in every Wednesday with a Weigh In Wednesday post. I’ll log what I ate, how much exercise (eeks if any, ha), and my current weight. I WONT, however, keep posting photos of myself for your sanity and mine! ha! I plan to tackle this project the same way I did prior to my baby girl, through the powers of Weight Watchers. Back in 2008 I successfully lost 20lbs in 5 months. This time, I’m hoping it won’t take as long, but I will take what I can get.

Here’s to getting healthy.

June 3, 2010 - 4:26 am Jeannette Chirinos Gold - Sheryl great post, and why don“t you check this book, it looks to be amazing Cook Yourself Thin (they said that you lose 1 size in 1 week)

June 3, 2010 - 2:04 pm Marla - Go Sheryl Go!!! You can do it. I have 20 lbs to lose :))

June 4, 2010 - 8:28 am Shelly Keefe Photography | Charleston Photographer - I am in the same situation! I need to drop 15 lbs as well. I weigh the same as you. That extra 15 pounds is sitting in my belly, butt and thighs. I have no motivation whatsoever! I need to do the same as you! Your brave! I need your guts and just put it out there. Last year at this time, I was in great shape, then we moved to Charleston, the city of great food! lol

June 4, 2010 - 8:29 am Shelly Keefe Photography | Charleston Photographer - Oh, and I have heard great things about the book suggested Jeannette. I want that book myself!

June 9, 2010 - 7:36 am Danielle - Good luck! The internet does motivate! We did the biggest loser at my 9-5 job and I posted my weekly weight on twitter! That motivated me!!
